While they remain 7-games out of the top spot in the American League race, the New York Highlanders have not given up hope with their playoff chances. In a rather stunning trade today, the Highlanders parted with top-prospect 25-year old Fred Odwell (1st Rd. 1903 draft, 16th overall; 33rd ranked prospect; .266/.274/.385 in 149 PA; 1.0 WAR) to the Philadelphia Phillies in return for veteran 30-year old 2B Claude Ritchey (1st Rd. 1896 draft, 6th overall; .276/.357/.317 in 426 PA for 3.4 WAR; 11.1 career WAR).
